Information about the amount of daily physical activity of the old is not only theoretically interesting, but also essential to determining and designing a physical conditioning program for the old. The purpose of this study is to assess the amount of physical activity or the activity pattern of the old in daily living, using the pedogram technique, in which the pedometer step rate was recorded successively every thirty seconds. Twenty-one males, aged 68.7±4.1 years were recruited as subjects. The subjects were asked to attach the pedocorder at their waists for three successive days, except bath- and sleeping times. The step rate for males averaged 9233±4246 steps per day. The distribution of pedometer step rate per minute shows that 73.9±9.6% of the allocated time spent at pedometer step rate of 0〜10 steps/min represented an almost sedentary condition. Duration exceeding 91 steps/min corresponding to training threshold for physical fitness, occurred 3.9±2.7% (28.2minutes) during a monitoring period. The physical activity in daily living of subjects attained to training threshold in both quantity and quality. A comparison of physical activity pattern between over 10000 steps/day and under 9000 steps/day denotes that the frequency of 0〜10steps/min was less in the day of 9000 steps/min than in the day of 10000 steps/day, and that of active state was more in the day of 10000 steps/day than in the day of 9000 steps/day.
